Competitive process. Forty seven applicants. Three finalists. She earned it , in so many ways. Proud of her and of course happy for us.
Beyond excited! I thought David would have been solid but Heather earned it and is the best candidate. Football is in good hands now just like when we had Peacock.
Who is David?

Personally psyched about Interim Chancellor Norris. I actually had a great interaction with her while I was a student in COB. Only asking this because I'm ignorant. Why is she good news for the football program specifically?
If in reference to my comment, I was referring to App St in general as the home team.
However, I do believe it may be good as she has been here for 20 years and I d
Understands the importance that football has brought to university. ..but not point of my comment

I’ve yet to hear (read) a negative word about this.

For that, I am thankful.

One of the first things Norris should do is extend Chancellor Emeritus status to Peacock (posthumously) and Everts. That would go a long way to repair some of the hurt and division and re-start a broken tradition.

How's this?

And we have to wait until 1 March to remove the interim label. I am way too impatient for that. UNC BOG just wants to screw us over at every chance they can.

Totally agree. Should have already been done for Peacock.

Using Peacock and everts in the same sentence is just wrong.

Can you do emeritus pothhumously? Also I don't think Everys was so bad as to not deserve the title as well. She was far from perfect and at the end it was time to go but she left App State in a overall good position while working against the typical UNC BOG headwinds and some politics that were in the state and country that were far from pro-college education.

If other Chancellors got the title it would be a huge slap in the face to not give her that title (assuming it is purely ceremonial and has no power.)I am not sure App is in a position to be known as a face-slapping university for our long term success. It would be better to be the better person and give her the title.

If you heard the stories I have you might not feel the same. I do agree about being better person usually but she caused many of her issues. I don't want to focus on her though because I am just thankful we got a huge upgrade. Heather should do a great job.

I heard some of it, and I typed out educate me about Everts a bit and then deleted it as I also don't want to focus on neither the past in this case, nor negatives. I am happy with what we have now.

But give her the title and be done with her. It might help us in the future to not be petty.

She is gone let's keep it that way. She deserves nothing from us. Ignoring her would not hurt us in the least.

Not to stoke a fire (but here I stand with a poker). We didn’t just become R2 with six months of interim leadership.
